Sad news.

That song, however, is horrible.

Very unfortunate

Also, it seems we are being rather cavalier with the word "famous" these days.

[usc90grad]

Never heard of him. Assume he OD'ed?

[ccured]

it is sad when any 19 year old dies. he wasn't famous though he did have a pretty substantial following on twitter. I like the crazy music in the background. I really like the music on dap you up

[cockyjordan3]

His "Rico" trilogy is pretty good. Outside of that I didn't like his music much. But he did have a decent following. RIP.

I had no clue who he was though.

He's well known as a producer in the hip hop community. He's produced for a lot of major artist. He was doing shows all over the United States and was in a bidding war with a number of major labels. The guy has over 12 million in YouTube views and huge cult following.

If I had to bet, homicide. Rappers don't usually dabble in the hard stuff aside from coke- that's for artists and rock guys. It doesn't require mind opening substances to talk into a mic about money and bitches.

Clearly, you don't mean to sound insensitive.

I didn't mean to come off the way I did. I legitimately didn't know who he was and tried to find out more about him. I only found the three I named

What's the problem? You rarely hear of rappers OD'ing. They are much more often victims of violence. As far as the music goes- did you play the video?

[acejrock]

I don't like the music either. But what you said was very insensitive and obviously stereotypical.

People are speculating about how the kid died. The only drugs that are common in the hip hop community that people typically OD from are coke and now Molly/X has become more popular. Gang violence is common in the rap community. I'm simply playing the percentages in my own speculation. Call it stereotyping if you want. Obviously, I have no idea how he died.
